Clean and well-kept. All furniture and equipment in room was up-to-date and good. A very comfortable place. One minor frustration was that our room had a very low shower head, but that may be a quirk of that particular room's space.

My husband and i have been staying at William Munger Inn when we are in duluth. We truly enjoy staying here became its a warm welcoming feel plus our pups have stayed here with us too. We love that our fur babies can vacation with us too. The rooms are clean, tidy , comfy, and priced well. Conveniently close to attraction and restaurants. We love supporting small business and William Munger is a great place to stay. Definitely recommended 👌

Nostalgic stay next to easy nature trail

Loved the nostalgic setting with sufficient updates for modern convenience and comfort. Having the nature trail just outside the door was also wonderful. I was even able to easily extend my stay on short notice.

Staff was friendly. Room seemed extremely clean as well as the grounds. Bed was excellent ,as well were the bath towels! Only real complaint was the bathroom was very tiny, could barely maneuver in the shower, and I'm not a large person.

Hidden Gem

Great stay! Hidden little gem. It’s a 5-10 drive from the busier parts of town. There’s a porch and fire pits in the back to relax after a days of adventures. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great. The property owner was great too. Will definitely stay here again.
